The Backyard Bird Chronicles by Amy Tan

medium-paced

5.0

Enjoyed this book IMMENSELY. In some ways, it is totally banal, simply one person's observations of their backyard, collected over a period of several years. In other ways, it is a collection of reflections and gratitude for our natural world, that honors and respects the creatures around us. The curation of journal entries lends itself to an emotional arc. Deeply enjoyed and I'm sure I will re-read.
